I realize the technology has it’s price but there are almost as many people who wear glasses that also use hearing aids, why is it still 4000 dollars and higher for two pieces of plastic to amplify sound? I call that a rip off.

      For such an expense by the cost more than computer and dont do nearly as much custom fitting is no reason for all of them etcetc there is no reason for such an expense by starkey digitals with volume control and they cost more than computer and they were only half the circuitry.
